Zambian ruling party, Patriotic Front PF, has suspended its Mufulira deputy mayor and district chairlady Beatrice Kapansa for sending her half naked picture to a PF WhatsApp group (See HERE). She shocked social media users on Sunday, October 9, 2016, after flaunting her breasts in the forum.

The municipal leader, who is in her late 50s, added a caption to her picture: " JUST RELAXING IN BED."

Following the scandal, PF Copperbelt chairman Steven Kainga said in an interview yesterday that the incident was extremely embarrassing and the ruling party had distanced itself from Kapansa’s actions."The party has further given Ms Kapansa a period in which to exculpate herself and show cause as to why further disciplinary actions should not be taken in line with the party disciplinary code. Ms Kapansa's actions were embarrassing not only to the party but also to the women folk. So she stands suspended," said Kainga who further said this should serve as a warning to other leaders on their conduct as they represented not only themselves but the party as a whole.
